WS-BPEL 2.0 Primer Revision 0.6

[Dieter Koenig1 <dieterkoenig@de.ibm.com>]

For the WS-BPEL Primer call tomorrow, I attached an updated version of the
WS-BPEL 2.0 Primer to this mail and propose that we use this document as
the new base for further editing.

Note that the attached file is **NOT** a direct continuation of the
existing document, so we need to discuss whether this is acceptable for all
editors.
(See attached file: wsbpel-primer-draft-06.doc)

Update history:
 - Created a new "doc" file from the WS-BPEL 2.0 *specification* in order
to reuse the template and styles from the spec
 - Copied all contents of "wsbpel-primer-draft-05.rtf" into
"wsbpel-primer-draft-06.doc"
 - Reassigned ALL styles (this drastically reduced the number of styles
compared with the original "rtf" document)
 - Moved Thomas Erl's text into a temporary appendix chapter (source for
further reuse)
 - Moved contents of chapter 2 into section 1.1 (this is too small to
become a chapter by itself -- all following chapter numbers decreased by 1)
 - Copied text for the "Getting Started" chapter (which Simon and I
prepared earlier) into the document (now chapter 4)
 - Deleted original "Notices" section and reused the "Notices" section from
the specification (now at the start of the document)
 - Added a placeholder as section 1.5 which explains the structure of the
document

If this document is a new acceptable base then we can continue editing with
this new base. As for the spec itself, I would urge all editors to minimize
the number of styles to the absolute minimum and reuse what is already
there (heading styles H1-H3, example style etc.).

Kind Regards
DK
